Unfinished Business

The desk. It was still there after all these years. The young girl who had sat for hours at it spilling out her heart, it was that Louise who looked at the desk through adult eyes as though time had stood still, commanding her to return.

Even her jar was still there. She remembered a menagerie of pens standing in it, each one waiting to be chosen, eager to create words that created sentences that created paragraphs, gushing out pages at a time. Oh, yes, Louise had a lot of unfinished business to attend to, now that she was back.

Earlier this year I posted a photo of the door at Old St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. I didn’t know the name of the church then. I visited Belton, Texas, recently and photographed it again. I have a friend who lives in the area and she thinks the church’s restoration progress is stop-and-go, based on funds. The construction fence around it is gone.

We didn’t know what this was for or how old it was. Maybe it’s from a long time ago and horses were tied to it when people came to call? On the sidewalk
